Living Life to the Full - Gauloises Cigarettes

The incredible mixture used to manufacture the three types of Gauloises cigarettes that you can find on the market is the first thing you'll notice after trying this brand. As opposed to other cigarettes that combine strong tar with an airy note, Gauloises advertises a different concept: tar and nicotine go hand in hand to ensure a full smoking experience. Some would say this is dangerous for your health (which is true); however, others would argue that there's no other cigarette that goes better with whiskey than this one.

Initially, Gauloises Ultra Lights (the yellow pack) have been advertised solely for women. However, this particular mixture proved rather effective to young men also, because the cigarette is strong enough to suggest a good tar, yet light enough to be enjoyed by smokers who don't have a lot of experience in this field.

Gauloises Legeres (the red pack) on the other hand are already a classic. People praise the excellent balance between the main aroma and the secondary notes in this cigarette and also remark that, after finishing the cigarette, you become more relaxed than you'd be if you smoked other brands.

The main attraction, Gauloises Filtres (the blue pack) are purely spectacular. You can go on smoking these cigarettes for years and still be able to feel that particular aroma which made them famous around the world. Also, they tend to leave no aftertaste in your mouth, which is very important for a regular cigarette with such a large volume of tar and nicotine.

Please note that there's no real correlation between the color of the pack and the strength of the cigarette. If you'll be able to intuit this for the yellow pack, make sure you don't mix the other two: when it comes to Gauloises, blue stands for regular and red stands for light.
